This is nuts. Don't abuse animals. Don't eat meat raised in cruel ways. Or, better yet try not to or just don't eat meat! Can't people do better?
========
@Sam Cook, I fully agree on that. I've been 100% vegetarian (very close to vegan.. only some dairy) for 16 years. But I think that asking for everyone to not eat meat is unrealistic. Some people would never do that.

I have to chime in on this once again..

the reason why this is absolutely nuts and more cruel is because ANIMALS HAVE EMOTIONS. Especially Cows. From first hand I will tell you that 100% Cows have emotions just like Dogs. They don't have higher intellect like us, but they are almost pure emotion. They are gentle and NICE creatures.

The animals emotional state and well being is 100% vital to their health and vitality for the time they spend here on Earth just like us and just like dogs.

If they feel no pain, the factory farms will increase the cruelty to increase their profits. It's just what they do. We CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!!!!

@Thomas I was more speaking in terms of the animals well being as opposed to it's taste. People's disregard for the animal's happiness in factory farms is the issue for me, not how good it tastes.

Personally I find the fat and oils in meat nauseating and it coats my mouth if someone tries to sneak it in my soup broth or something. They think I won't notice. I don't know how you meat eaters can stand that coating of animal lard all over your teeth and insides of your mouth. Yuk!

@Wade, it's a fact that humans are designed to be herbivores. How many gorillas (before you argue that we're not gorillas, we are of the same order - primates) do you see killing cows? They are herbivores. You like many are just conditioned to think you need meat. This is fact. It's science. Fact is, you are 100% wrong. I suspect you're going to argue with that though and act like you know more than scientists now.

@Monica Solution: Grow other food products, or genetically modify meat to grow like plants. We're already growing human ears, noses, hearts, lungs to some degree. Why not a meat plant? I know some people are just too stubborn to stop eating meat so this is my solution. Otherwise in a perfect world we would all just be vegetarians like we're supposed to anyways.
